Poor man's Rockport Atrias?
Soix, not what I wanted to hear!! :)The more I think about it the more I scheme for ways to justify this to myself. I figure the kids will always get scholarships and I dont really need to worry about retirement for a while right? I. Need. To. Sto... 
Poor man's Rockport Atrias?
Hi Goose...this particular dealer only had Rockports. I will admit the Atrias sounded very good. If I get these I would hold on to them for a very very long time. Its just the price tag that has me a bit bothered. I just wondering if I could spend... 
Poor man's Rockport Atrias?
Thanks folks. Used Rockports are hard to come by for sure. What about other speaker brands that have similar traits as the Rockports? 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
I am not sure what to get. According the the entreq website the minimus can handle "several" components. I was thinking of trying it on my Dac/cdp and integrated amp. Would the Minimus work for this setup? 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Just an update, I asked entreq if shipping is also covered and they said yes so seems like there is truly a risk free way to try this product out. 
JPLAY - It aint subtle
Hew and others who have tried JPLAY and like it, what OS are you using? I am using Server 2012 with Audiophile Optimizer. When I tried JPLAY I didnt hear any difference. I wonder if its because the Optimizer already does a very good job tweaking t... 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
I contacted Entreq directly and they said they do have a money back guarantee. You can keep it for 6 weeks. Not sure if shipping is covered as well but I doubt it. 
Thinking about Sonus Faber Stradivari ....
Joeinid, if you decide to sell your Evolutions please let me know. ;) I am itching to upgrade my speakers. With my recent changes to my front end and addition of room treatments I finally feel I am ready to step up to the big time. My Auditors hav... 
Thinking about Sonus Faber Stradivari ....
I dont have feedback on the Stradivari but I can say (in my opinion) that a speaker that speaks to your heart will definitely give you more enjoyment! I am seriously considering the Memento or Evolutions in the very hear future. To me, a speaker t... 
PC OS makes a big difference in sound
Good question....I don't know. Hit up Phil on the website. He is super responsive. I don't know of anyone who didn't notice a nice improvement using this. 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
I am still trying to buy direct from Japan but have not had any responses from the various retailers I have tried. I will keep trying. 
PC OS makes a big difference in sound
Mysearcher257, you can purchase an executable that does various tweaks to the OS. Its about $113.Here is the link with more details:http://www.highend-audiopc.com/optimizer.html 
What is the missing element?
There are so many things you can do to improve the sound of your PC setup. Personally I found good improvement with addressing power and tweaking the OS. My next step is to look for a better USB converter (I have the Vlink as well). 
DIY AC cable...which bulk cable?
I use the Oyaide P4/C4 which I find to have a very clean, clear sound though I am very curious to try the Furutech F1-50 too. 
Replace Silver interconnect cable , please advice
Pelo, I assume your dealer also sells Tara cables??? Perhaps I am being cynical but its not surprising he is suggesting some very expensive ICs. Before spending big bucks on cables you should audition some to see if you can even tell the differenc...
